# Batch Copy Users

Batch Copy is a helpful utility that helps Cacti Administrators maintain users. Because Cacti does not yet support groups, it is important that there is some way to mass update users. This what Batch Copy does for you.

Figure 9-8. Batch Copy Users Part 1

To Batch Copy a set of or a single user, select the User Management item under the Utilities heading on the Cacti menu. Once at the user management screen, select the user(s) you would like to batch copy information to and select "Batch Copy" from the Action selection box, click Go to continue.
